It's time.  It's time for retiring senators and congresspersons from the other side to take a bold step for America.  Stand up and say, "Enough!" to John McCain's derailed run for the presidency, questionable campaign strategies and incompetent grasp and articulation of the issues we face.  Stand up to the slurs, the nastiness, and the utter lack of truth-telling by the McCain campaign.  End the abusive, malicious smear campaing being indoctrinated into McCain canvassers.  Stand up to the very real and grave risk Sarah Palin, by her complete ignorance of most national and  all foreign policy issues, poses to this country.
You have nothing to lose!  What are you waiting for to endorse Barack Obama?  You know he's more prepared to serve as our nation's leader.  You know he has the steady leadership and the knowledge to deal with the issues before us.  You also know his are the moderate ideas we need to secure our nation's economy and our nation's future.

Also wanted are some of you have have something to lose.  How bout really putting country first?  Moderate Republicans (or apologetic conservatives) put your Senate or House seat on the line.  Talk is cheap.  Prove you really put your country before your electability.  Make up for all the lip-service you've paid to the previous administration and its just-plain-wrong policies.  You can make up for the last eight years--beginning now.  Make up for your tacit (until now) approval of the blight that is the McCain scorched-earth campaign.  And, who knows, by endorsing Barack Obama, you might even raise your hopes on Nov. 4th.

The tide is turning.  Be on a winning team.  Be on the best team for uniting our nation and doing what's necessary to get us back on track economically, diplomatically, and security-wise.  You know we do not need more wrecking-ball policies.  They haven't worked.  You know we need a moderating of the power-grabbing Bush years.  Yet Sarah Palin and John McCain seek to build even greater power centered in the White House.  Palin herself said so.  You can help put an end to the ongoing unConstitutional direction of Bush-Cheney-McCain-Palin.

Our nation needs you to come on over to our side now.  Calling all good Republicans... Where are you?  Senators John Warner, Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Chuck Hagel, where are you?  Where are others of you who care more about our nation than the Republican party?  America needs you, more than ever.

Remember the old Republican Party? (Tiderion - 10/13/2008 10:33:46 PM)
The one we weren't really threatened by if we lost to them? What happened?

Where's the beef? It's like the dignity seeped out onto the floor.
